I have a Moment connected to a BeoVision 10 and it works perfectly. You'll have to replace the Overture with the Moment as the Audio Master and use an NL/ML Converter to connect the Moment to your ML network. I like the plug and play simplicity of using an ML Distribution Box to join devices into the ML network.

You can use your Overture in slave mode in another room for local distribution of its sources. However, if you also want to have full access in your ML network of the Ouverture sources, you will need a second NL/ML converter to re-introduce the Ouverture into the ML network. You would then map the Ouverture sources to ML commands via the NL/ML converter that's connected to the Moment.

The Moment has settings in its menu to use the BeoVision 10 via the NL/ML converter for its speakers.You can map the Moment's sources to ML commands via the NL/ML converter and can access those sources from ML link rooms -- such as your BL3500.

Thank you, that is very helpful indeed. I'd still like to retain use of the Ouverture cd player and at the moment I just hit CD on the Beo 4 and it plays through the TV. I am not looking to control this through the Moment. Is there an easy way to achieve this? Just use a Masterlink Distribution box perhaps?

Thanks. 

It just occurred to me that the line-in solution has a drawback: anytime you send ANY audio source commands from the Beo4, your Ouverture will turn on and react to those sources in as well as just the CD source. You wouldn't hear those sources other than CD, but you might find it annoying for the Ouverture to be silently playing the radio or tape in the background. Note that you would need to have the Ouverture in Option 1 to receive IR commands. If you put the Ouverture in Option 0 to disable IR commands, you could still control it physically by pushing its buttons.

Thank you, this is all clear and a massive help! Just one query. If I add the Ouverture via a separate NL convertor, is that convertor connected to the other convertor? I'm just trying to get clear what is plugged into the ML slot on the TV and then how the two converters are connected to each other, and to the TV. It all makes sense, it's just the physical connecting that my simple mind is getting to grips with! 

Got it, thank you! 

I run a Moment connected to a BV 10 via NL/ML converter. The BV 10 is part of a classical ML network as video master, including a BS 9000 as audio master. In my network there is only one NL/ML converter present. I‘m not really the expert of this topic, but if I remember well, in a NL network an audio master does not exist. For ML Integration I am using ML distributors.

I control the sources in the network with my Beo 4. If I push the CD button, the 9000 starts playing CD. I get the Moment playing with N.Radio and N.Music. Using the B&O app, I have direct control over the Moment. Starting the Moment directly, it uses the speakers of my BV setup.

Being not familiar with the Ouverture, I would guess that it´s not capable of playing N.Music or N.Radio, being an older version to my BS 3000 which does play these sources. But it should be possible to keep the Ouverture as audio master, and steer the Moment separately.

Kindest regards,

Rolf

In your setup, you have the Converter set to the role of "Source Center." That only works with a few newer products. It won't work with the Ouverture.
